OMG Tahm Kench Is AWESOME!

Jellycake Demon··2 votes·1,820 views

So I just finished going over his abilities on the LOL News Patch Updates/News & HOLY MONKEYBALLS RIOT YOU ARE A FREAKING GENIUS & I LUV YOU ALL XD! (deep heavy breathing) sorry...just let me...catch my breath.

Okay, i'm okay. (deep inhale & then exhale) I'm good now. As soon as this swag fish-man gets released i am spending my paycheck $$$ to buy this guy & play him likes there's no tomorrow like when I got
Bard & Ekko.
So far as Item builds I think I got a good one for him: item 3275 (or) item 3265/item 3083/item 3065/item 3068/item 3078/item 3027. [if i'm reading his Ultimate's Passive effect right all of his Damage (i'm assuming it's referring to his Abilities) scales of how much Health that Tahm Kench has has, so building Item's that increase his overall HP for both the damage & the durability. but this is for his Solo Top Tank Lane.

the post said that he can be played as a Support, that W sure can change things for supports since you EAT YOUR LANE PARTNER! & people say Bard's Ult is gonna be a troll move, imagine if your ADC is about to kill someone & Tahm just gobbles him/or her up......hahahahhah just thinking about makes me laugh.

I'm getting off topic anyway i think i got an idea for a Support Item Build: item 3275/item 3401/item 3065/item 3083 item 3027/drawing a blank for the 6th Item.

And the cool thing is, for once they made a champion without a massively overloaded kit. Gj rito.

ikr right. Tahm's kit is not too simple but it's not to over-ally complicated but it can be very tricky.

I just like the prospect of being able to drag my half-health ADC away from that 1v2 tower dive he's trying.

Probably won't work out that way, depending on if there's a minimum time they stay devoured or not, but I can dream.

that's true the News Post that shows Tahm's Abilities don't really say how long he can keep an ally in his gut, but that's to be expected. Riot usually gives all the details on a new Champions Abilities in the Spotlight video on their Youtube Channel.

but that part about eating your ally to save their ass sounds both funny & extremely helpful especially if your ADC is either Trigger-Happy or out for blood and they get trapped or kitted really easily.

Actually they just revealed how long that he can keep some one in his belly. Devour a target for 4/4.5/5/5.5/6s (half that for enemy champions.) I'm going to love this ability for when my friends play him, and I play my main Anivia. Go into egg, and then he can just devour the egg and keep me safe for the full 6 seconds Lol

So his W is just a better version of Kayle's Ult?

Tahm do you like your eggs Sunny-Side-Up, Poutched or Scrambled?

According to a reddit post, there's a 6 second maximum they can be stored (At max level, at least), but the ally can leave early if they chose. I'm just not sure HOW early they can leave.

i'm pretty sure as soon as Tahm eats his ally they can then pick when to get out, cause if Tahm eats an ally when their about to kill an enemy & they can't leave his stomach right away that would be a Troll Move.

I'M GOING TO SAY THIS IN CAPS

SO "KALISTA + TAHM" BEST BOT LANE CHAMP RIGHT?

seriously they can save each other butt then right? LOL

Jellycake Demon1 votes

that would be the ultimate bot lane pair!

Kalista pulls Tahm in then Tahm explodes out damaging enemies then eats either the enemy ADC or Support. If Kalista is screw have no fear Tahm is hear to gobble you up.

Hangsterr1 votes

oh shit now that you said that, if Tahm eat an enemy and Kalista ult Tahm to bring the enemy into the turret........that would be f**king OP

Jellycake Demon1 votes

.............you just blew my mind! that would be fucking OP

Hangsterr1 votes

As long as Ekko is still around(without the nerf "yet"), just keep dreaming of how long your tank will live

Jellycake Demon1 votes

i can't wait & see what kind of skins Riot will make for Tahm.

Hangsterr1 votes

so at max level Tahm can hold someone for 6 sec?? So if i eat someone and TP back to base.......would that be awesome???

I'm sure tp don't take 6 second

Riot posted somewhere that you can't flash or teleport while using your W.

Jellycake Demon1 votes

yeah that would be too OP, maybe that's why he can only TP with 1 additional ally with his Ultimate Only.
